Your "hello" can save a life. Please be that person - we have no one to lose❤️ Having had two close friends attempt to take their own lives, I know the dangerous cost of staying silent. When I was 14, a friend tried to end her life. No one at my school talked about it, and no adults guided us. She is now in need of help her entire life cause of the damages that happened to her brain cause of her attempt. Last year, it happened again to another friend. She survived and she's healthy. Her family asked her to stop talking about it - but silence doesn't save lives. So we talked when she told us. It was hard, painful, and uncomfortable - but necessary. If you are struggling, please speak up. And if someone reaches out to you - just see them. That simple gesture can change everything. You don't have to save them. You just have to see them.
